1994 Cannabis Cup

1994 - The 7th Cannabis Cup. The event included a Hemp Expo at the Pax Party House and opening ceremonies at the Melkweg. For the first time, the Sensi Seed Bank operated a tour to Cannabis Castle, where Nevil bred many of his award-winning strains. Three seed companies entered: Sensi Seed Bank, Cerebral Seeds and Positronics. A separate competition was held for 15 coffeeshops. Sensi Seed Bank won the Cannabis Cup with Jack Herer. The Green House was next with their 'Citral Skunk' And Grey Area was third with AK47. The celebrity judges included Soma, Chris Conrad, Jack Herer and Enuff Z'Nuff.

The Cup had become a worldwide media event: An hour-long documentary was shown on Tokyo TV, and a lengthy article appeared in the New York Times Magazine, complete with a flowering "sea-of-green" clone on the cover. The head of the local Dutch police visited the Expo and came away favorably impressed by the spiritual vibrations of the event.

The Cannabis Culture Awards, previously known as the 'Cannabis Cultuur Prijs', were initiated in 2004 by philanthropist Ben Dronkers in order to honor and reward people who have made outstanding contributions to the world of hemp and cannabis. Read More...
